00:02:31Adele so oh Adele no that's a big sing honey I know I know she's I was expecting like it
00:02:37I don't know
00:02:37pop star honestly I thought I'd do a bit more dancing around but I feel like we're keeping it
00:02:43chill today okay okay you definitely look like what we're looking for thank you but we need the entire
00:02:49package yeah so let's see how your pipes are I'm looking forward to hearing you sing thank you very
00:02:55much whenever you're ready some when the rain is blowing in your face and the whole world is on your
00:03:19case
00:03:21I could offer you a warm embrace to make you feel my love I know you haven't made your mind
00:03:37up yet oh but I would never do you wrong
00:03:45I've known it from the moment that we met no doubt in my mind where you belong
00:03:58I'd go hungry I'd go black and blue and I'd go crawling down the avenue
00:04:10no there's nothing I wouldn't do to make you feel my love to make you feel my that's all good
00:04:31that's all good all good nice right yes but it is not what I expected
00:04:38from you I didn't expect a young beautiful vibrant structured model looking girl to come
00:04:44in and sing old sad lady songs I know you can do that but that's just not going to cut
00:04:53it the singers we've got this year are incredible we get one song to make our decision and as nice
00:04:59as that was
00:05:01I'm not sure whether you're strong enough to be put forward what do you think ladies
00:05:09um beautiful voice but I kind of see where Kyle's coming from it just feels sure like yeah a bit
00:05:16detached I could sort of see your your sassiness coming through that song I was like oh she's holding back
00:05:23a little bit but she did say that she did say that before she performed she's not going to do
00:05:28anything you're going to stand still and sing
00:05:29we don't have a magic crystal ball here I want to see what I'm offered
00:05:36I never do this ever I want you to go away pick a song that actually shows us who you
00:05:44are and come back and re-audition
00:05:46more like see that in the next audition maybe if you say yes I can show you that in the
00:05:52next one there's no
00:05:52next one you're coming back to re-audition with a new song would you do that yeah I can read
00:05:57something you're
00:05:58gonna have a chance to reprocess what it is you want to do I believe that's the singer that you
00:06:05just sang that's
00:06:06what you want to do but I'm going to humor them is that what you want to do I've got
00:06:11other songs I
00:06:12want to dance so you want to you want to strut around you cool with that yeah okay I've got
00:06:19to go study

00:25:00The main motive is, of course, to, like, just share my love for music.
00:25:09And if I make anyone smile, even if it's just one person, I've already done my job.
00:25:21Hello.
00:25:22Oh, hi there, guys. Come on in.
00:25:24Hello.
00:25:24Who have we got here?
00:25:26Piano player.
00:25:27Hi.
00:25:28Oh, you're playing and you're auditioning?
00:25:30Yes.
00:25:30What's your name?
00:25:31I feel like I've just gone back in time.
00:25:32My name is Amalia Safonova.
00:25:34What's your surname?
00:25:36Safonova.
00:25:37Where are you from?
00:25:38So, I was born here, however, my family is based from Moldova.
00:25:42Oh, wonderful.
00:25:44Yeah.
00:25:44Is that where the Princess Diaries was?
00:25:47Probably not.
00:25:48Oh, you guys, you didn't probably have TV in Moldova.
00:25:51Yeah, and this is my brother.
00:25:52He will be accompanying me.
00:25:54It is his duty.
00:25:55Oh, wonderful.
00:25:56So, you're a musical family?
00:25:58Yeah, just the two of us, though, really.
00:26:00Okay, wonderful.
00:26:00What song?
00:26:01Art is calling for me.
00:26:03Is this a radio song or is this a...?
00:26:07It is.
00:26:07It's kind of...
00:26:08It's from an operetta.
00:26:08It's like an operetta.
00:26:09Oh, okay, okay.
00:26:10It's by Victor Herbert.
00:26:12Well, how wonderful.
00:26:13How wonderful.
00:26:16Okay, what are you going to play there?
00:26:17What have you got?
00:26:18I have a trumpet.
00:26:20No, this flute.
00:26:22I like you.
00:26:23I was worried for a second there.
00:26:25I think the flute...
00:26:26Is this a first?
00:26:27Have we seen someone play a flute?
00:26:29Or maybe.
00:26:29Not since that American Pie movie.
00:26:31American Pie, yeah.
00:26:32And what's the age difference, Amalia, between you and your brother?
00:26:35So, I'm 15 and he's 19.
00:26:37You're 15?
00:26:38Yes.
00:26:39Oh, you're a baby.
00:26:41Wow.
00:26:41So, he's your big brother?
00:26:42He's my big brother.
00:26:44This is your moment, so you take as much time as you need.
00:26:47And we're ready, yeah?
00:26:48Whenever you're ready.
00:26:49Or when you're ready, okay?
00:27:02Mama is a queen and Papa is a king.
00:27:06So, I am a princess and I knew it.
00:27:09But court etiquette is a dull, dreary thing.
00:27:14I just hate it all and I shout.
00:27:19To sing on the stage, that's the one life for me.
00:27:26I'd be a success that I do know.
00:27:30And Mama, I'd asked if I once sang in Faust.
00:27:34That a brrrr, so charming boy.
00:27:37I...
00:27:38Guno.
00:27:39Guno.
00:27:41You know.
00:27:42You know what?
00:28:00That's what I'm dying for.
00:28:02That's what I'm sighing for.
00:28:04That's what I'm sighing for me.
00:28:16That's what I'm sighing for me.
00:28:37What am I going to do with that?
00:28:39And that has a place on stage.
00:28:42Look, if I paid $12 at lunchtime to sit in a theatre and watch opera, that would be spectacular.
00:28:48But that is...
00:28:49You're in the wrong place.
00:28:51It was so good.
00:28:52That was so entertaining, yeah?
00:28:54That...
00:28:55That is not an easy thing to do, even with your acting through it and...
00:29:00Oh, man, I enjoyed every second of that.
00:29:02That was so, so brilliant.
00:29:04I'm very glad.
00:29:05Yeah.
00:29:06You know, you've got a beautiful operatic voice.
00:29:08But, you know, look, I did study opera as a kid.
00:29:10I used to say to God, please make me a commachero.
00:29:13I just want to sing those high notes.
00:29:15You're a beautiful singer.
00:29:16You want to be a commachero?
00:29:17No.
00:29:17You're going to need a different jacket.
00:29:20Okay, I think we've goo-gooed and gar-gaed enough over someone and a group of people that
00:29:24we're never going to do anything with.
00:29:26I'm goo-goo-gar-gaing and I'm going to say no.
00:29:29It's not really something that will probably go very far in this competition.
00:29:33I really appreciated that performance.
00:29:36I can't speak for my colleague, but, you know.
00:29:39That's all that matters.
00:29:40Thank you very much.
00:29:41It's a no from me, but I appreciate what you just did.
00:29:43Thank you, guys.
00:29:44Bye-bye.
00:29:45She's funny.
00:29:45Good luck, Amelia.
00:29:46Excellent work.
00:29:47Thank you, guys.
00:29:48Well done.
00:29:50These are a few of my favourite things.
00:29:52Here he is.
00:29:53I simply remember my favourite things and then I don't feel so bad.
00:30:01Okay.
00:30:01Don't hear that.
00:30:02It'll ruin millions of dollars of marketing.
00:30:04Everyone got that, right?
00:30:06Still to come, Sophie struggles to pick a song to show the artist she really is.
00:30:12It is a massive curveball, but I understand what Kyle was trying to say.
00:30:17I feel like I look different to what I was singing.
00:30:19Can Rikki's advice help her in the biggest decision of her life?
00:30:25There's a way that we can use your jazzy, sassy, young, fresh, but do you know, I heard an amazing
00:30:33version.
00:30:34Have you ever done Tainted Love?
00:30:37So is Tainted Love something that you've done?
00:30:40Yeah.
00:30:41Do you think you can, I couldn't, yeah, sink your teeth into it.
00:30:44I think it'd be like a good song to do.
00:30:47Yeah, we can do something with this for sure.
00:30:49Yeah?
00:30:50Mm-hmm.
00:30:50All right.
00:30:50Well, do you want to maybe, we'll get the music team to maybe, someone can play on the piano and
00:30:55you can have a little play.
00:30:56That'd be perfect.
00:30:57Okay.
00:30:58Okay, let's go.
00:30:59Let's do this.
00:31:00Tainted Love.
00:31:01Tainted Love.
00:31:02Sometimes I feel I've got to run away.
00:31:08Nice.
00:31:09Nice.
00:31:10Yeah.
00:31:10I like that.
00:31:12Yep.
00:31:15But first, does this data analyst have what it takes to win Australian Idol?
00:31:21Thank you, Michael.
00:31:24And one barber from Ballarat.
00:31:28Really, you're going to say yes with that lackluster audition?
00:31:32Divides the judges.
00:31:34We just went through the whole thing.
00:31:36He's got style, he's got a really cool voice.
00:31:38Yeah, but I've got style and I've got a good voice too.
00:31:56One thing I've learned about Idol is that every singer approaches their audition in their own unique way.
00:32:01Some focus on the singing, others like to show off their personality, and then there are those who are all
00:32:08about the look.
00:32:09Hi.
00:32:10How are you guys?
00:32:11Very well.
00:32:12How are you going?
00:32:13Hi.
00:32:14Wow, you look incredible.
00:32:15Don't you look lovely?
00:32:18Next top model auditions in the next studio.
00:32:20I think for me, you know, when someone walks in and they look amazing and they come in confident.
00:32:27Hello, how are you?
00:32:29And they stand there and they open their mouth.
00:32:32And then...
00:32:34I am not a fighter before this fight is over.
00:32:40They suck.
00:32:41You'll know my name before I go.
00:32:46It just isn't quite there.
00:32:49So it's a no from me.
00:32:50Thank you, Jamie.
00:32:51Thank you, though.
00:32:52That's okay.
00:32:52Bye, darling.
00:32:54God is good and yeah.
00:32:57Yeah, come on!
00:32:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:01What if God was one of us?
00:33:05What if he was?
00:33:07Call me on my cell phone.
00:33:10Late night when you need my love.
00:33:13Oh, bro.
00:33:15I can't.
00:33:16I have to do this on the...
00:33:17It's very rarely done.
00:33:19You're a strapping bloke, but man, that showed everything that this show is not.
00:33:23Not, yeah.
00:33:26Obviously, you're a good-looking young man with no future in singing.
00:33:30You seem to know what it should be, but I'm not sure you actually got to where you need to
00:33:36be.
00:33:37Today, it's going to be a no from me.
00:33:39I wish I could sing it again.
00:33:41It's a no from me as well.
00:33:43Thank you, guys.
00:33:44Nice to meet you.
00:33:44Thank you, mate.
00:33:44Nice to meet you.
00:33:45It's the idle illusion.
00:33:46They look like they could be on the cover of Rolling Stone, but then they just don't sound the part.
00:33:52Good-looking man.
00:33:54What's your name?
00:33:55My name's Harry Lamb.
00:33:56Harry Lamb.
00:33:57Where are you from, Harry Lamb?
00:33:58I'm from Ballarat in New Orleans.
00:34:00Ballarat?
00:34:01Yeah, regional Victoria.
00:34:02Yeah, I know exactly where Ballarat is.
00:34:05Harry Lamb from Ballarat.
00:34:06What do you do there?
00:34:07I have a barber shop in Ballarat, so I cut hair through the week and then play gigs on the
00:34:12weekend.
00:34:23I've been cutting hair for eight years now.
00:34:27What are we thinking today, man?
00:34:28A bit of a melody sort of vibe.
00:34:30I've worked really hard at building a bit of a music career for myself.
00:34:34I really enjoy doing both.
00:34:36It's more just trying to find the hours in the day sometimes.
00:34:38I really do love both, but I'd say music probably comes out on top for me.
00:34:43It's definitely something that I see myself doing forever.
00:34:47Anyway, yeah.
00:34:50Run away, run away, run away.
00:34:54Harry Lamb, the barber from Ballarat.
00:34:57The barber from Ballarat.
00:34:57What are we going to sing today then?
00:34:59I'm doing Eye of the Tiger by Survivor.
00:35:01Oh, that's a good old song, man.
00:35:03And if you kicked it up a notch here, we're going to...
00:35:05I've kind of pulled it back the other way.
00:35:08It's a little bit more folky.
00:35:09Okay, great.
00:35:10Yeah, a bit more stripped.
00:35:11And that's sort of a record, that folky vibe is what you'd do
00:35:14if you got through this?
00:35:15For sure, yeah.
00:35:16I'd definitely play a lot more folky sort of stuff.
00:35:18Okay, I'm excited.
00:35:21Awesome.
00:35:21All right.
00:35:22Harry Lamb from Ballarat.
00:35:24Looking forward to seeing what you've got, man.
00:35:25Good luck.
00:35:26Thank you. Cheers.
00:35:26When you're ready.
00:35:41Rising up, back on the street.
00:35:45Took my time, took my chances.
00:35:49We're in the distance, now I'm back on my feet.
00:35:54So fight, will to survive.
00:35:58So many times, it happens so fast.
00:36:03Change your talent for glory.
00:36:07Don't lose your kisses and fight on the feet.
00:36:13I'm alive.
00:36:16He forgot the words, didn't he?
00:36:18It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight.
00:36:23Rising on to the challenge of our rivals.
00:36:27And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night.
00:36:32And he's watching this all through the eyes.
00:36:38Oh, the tiger.
00:36:44The eye of the tiger.
00:36:53The eye of the tiger.
00:37:02Oh, look at you little shy country boy.
00:37:07How'd that feel, Harry?
00:37:08A little, I've mucked up the words a bit.
00:37:10Do you have them on your guitar?
00:37:12I've got them written on my arm.
00:37:14I was going to say, I've done that before on the top of the guitar.
00:37:17I could tell, like, obviously, there were some times where you lost the lyrics or whatever.
00:37:23But the best thing about it was you didn't go, ah, crap.
00:37:26You didn't stop, got to start again.
00:37:27You know what I mean?
00:37:28Like, you were, you just powered through it, which is professional.
00:37:31Awesome.
00:37:32It wasn't the best audition because of that.
00:37:35But, um, but still, there's promise.
00:37:41And I'm going to say yes.
00:37:45Really, you're going to say yes with that lackluster audition?
00:37:49Without what?
00:37:50Like, there was a lot of good stuff in there, but there was a lot.
00:37:51We just went through the whole thing.
00:37:53He's got style.
00:37:54He's got a really cool voice.
00:37:55Yeah, but I've got style and I've got a good voice too.
00:37:58Yeah, you won't be able to write these performances on your arm.
00:38:01You're going to walk out of here looking like a bikey.
00:38:03And, um, it's just not going to be good enough for me to give you a yes.
00:38:11So, I'm going to be very honest with you.
00:38:14You're great eye candy.
00:38:15You look very, very good.
00:38:18You're welcome.
00:38:19I mean, look, call it the way.
00:38:20She just likes the hard-hitting question.
00:38:21So, what I'm trying to say to you is, you know, you're compelling to look at.
00:38:26But you looked at the floor.
00:38:28You look at the lights.
00:38:29You look at your audience.
00:38:32Yeah.
00:38:33Give something of yourself.
00:38:35Okay?
00:38:35You've got to learn not to go in because nobody else can go in there but you.
00:38:40Yeah.
00:38:40You have to give something of yourself.
00:38:43That was an okay audition.
00:38:47But that was a performance that I think you could really build upon.
00:38:51For sure.
00:38:52I can see you've got potential.
00:38:55I think I'd say yes.
00:38:56It's a yes from me.
00:38:58Thank you so much.
00:38:59I really appreciate that.
00:39:00And I appreciate the advice.
00:39:01Next time we see you, we'll be handing out golden tickets.
00:39:04You either get one or you don't.
00:39:06You're welcome.
00:39:07Lots to work on.
00:39:07Nice work, Harry.
00:39:08Thank you so much.
00:39:09We'll see you later on.
00:39:10Bye-bye.
00:39:11It's put me on edge a little bit.
00:39:13I'm not super comfortable but I got through so I'm happy with that.
00:39:18Hi.
00:39:19Hello.
00:39:20How'd you go?
00:39:21It was okay.
00:39:23Definitely wasn't my best performance.
00:39:25Oh, really?
00:39:26They said they saw the potential so two yeses, we're on.
00:39:29Yeah, go celebrate.
00:39:30Congratulations.
00:39:34The tension in the waiting room now builds as Harry joins Kesha and Trey in the running for
00:39:40for a golden ticket.
00:39:46As audition day five kicks on and hundreds of hopefuls still to see our judges, they're
00:39:53in need of a little pick-me-up.
00:40:06Oh, here we go.
00:40:08You're so handsome.
00:40:09Take, take, take.
00:40:10Appreciate that.
00:40:10Whoa.
00:40:11Beautiful.
00:40:12Thank you, sir.
00:40:13That is fantastic.
00:40:14Masha, can you pass for my camera?
00:40:16Get ready for Amy Cam.
00:40:18She thinks she's the next Spielberg.
00:40:20Oh, no.
00:40:22I forgot my latte was on the lid.
00:40:25We're back at behind the scenes and Kyle's just spilt coffee everywhere.
00:40:29It's chaos.
00:40:30Look at that mess.
00:40:32One minute, we're all judging.
00:40:33Next minute, Amy's doing her own filming.
00:40:36That's your last coffee, Kyle.
00:40:38No, I've already ordered another one.
00:40:40Here we go.
00:40:41Here we go.
00:40:42Focus, Amy.
00:40:43Espresso Marchiato.
00:40:45Gotta go.
00:40:46Like and subscribe.
00:40:51Our next singer hoping to outshine the competition is Victorian Michael.
00:40:56I'm a dato analyst.
00:40:58So, taking raw data and trying to present it in creative ways.
00:41:03But I definitely present differently when I'm performing.
00:41:10I'm very excited to show Australia what Michael K can do.
00:41:14It could be a life-changing moment.
00:41:16We'll say it right here.
00:41:17This could be one of those moments.
00:41:20I've always dreamed of being the next Australian Idol.
00:41:23I think out of all the judges, Kyle comes across as scary.
00:41:27So, I'm like, if you like it, I did something really well.
00:41:30Let's go.
00:41:31We got this.
00:41:40Hello there.
00:41:42Hello.
00:41:43Hey.
00:41:43Hi, mate.
00:41:43How are you?
00:41:44I'm good, thank you.
00:41:45How are we?
00:41:45Great.
00:41:46Loving the outfit.
00:41:47Loving the do-rag.
00:41:48Good.
00:41:48You knew what it was.
00:41:49Good-looking man.
00:41:50Good-looking man.
00:41:51What do you do?
00:41:52What's your name?
00:41:53My name's Michael.
00:41:54I'm 29 from Melbourne and I'm a data analyst.
00:41:56A do-rag wearing data analyst.
00:41:59That is not...
00:41:59When I picture data analyst, that's not what I picture.
00:42:02Data analyst by day.
00:42:04Switch it up at night.
00:42:05You know it, right?
00:42:06I'm Michael K, the artist.
00:42:07Oh, you've got a whole show.
00:42:08So, you perform?
00:42:09Absolutely.
00:42:10Yes, honey.
00:42:11So, what are you going to sing today, man?
00:42:13Today, I'm going to be bringing you Waterfalls by TLC, one of my favorite songs.
00:42:17Oh, great track.
00:42:18You know that's a deep song, too.
00:42:19It's a deep song.
00:42:20Yeah, baby.
00:42:21Is there a reason why that one?
00:42:22Uh, it was the first song I actually ever learnt to rap to when I used to just sing and
00:42:28then
00:42:28I was like, let me try to learn to rap and something about Left Eye brought me into that.
00:42:34Okay, Michael.
00:42:35Um, can't wait to see what you've got.
00:42:37Very excited.
00:42:38Take your time and show us what you've got.
00:42:41Hope you enjoy it.
00:43:13But all the praying just ain't helping at all
00:43:17Another body laying cold in the cup
00:43:21Listen to me
00:43:23Don't go chasing waterfalls
00:43:27Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
00:43:32I know that you're gonna have it going
00:43:36Nothing at all
00:43:38But I think you're moving too fast
00:43:42Oh, come on
00:43:44I seen a rainbow yesterday
00:43:46But too many storms
00:43:48How come I'm gone leaving a trace
00:43:49And not one God-given ray
00:43:50Is it because my life is ten shades away
00:43:52Pray on ten fade away
00:43:54You saw the praising for the sun
00:43:55Didn't expect the rap man.
00:43:56That's great.
00:43:57He came even smooth with it.
00:43:59Yeah
00:43:59Chances I blew to bring my life to a new
00:44:01Clear blue and unconditional skies
00:44:03I drive the tears from my eyes
00:44:04No more lonely cries
00:44:05Don't go chasing waterfalls
00:44:10Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
00:44:15I know that you're gonna have it going on nothing at all
00:44:20But I think you're moving too fast
00:44:23Oh, oh, you're moving too fast
00:44:28Yeah
00:44:31Thank you, Michael
00:44:34Some serious riz there
00:44:36I loved it
00:44:38Thank you
00:44:39Thank the Lord
00:44:41This is great
00:44:41You know Kyle is my brother from another mother
00:44:44A little bit cozy
00:44:46I love that
00:44:47That's right up your alley
00:44:48That is so great
00:44:49You've just got a great vibe
00:44:51A great energy
00:44:52A great look
00:44:52A great sound
00:44:53Thank you
00:44:54Yeah, cool rap sound too
00:44:55This is not
00:44:56Not everyone has that
00:44:57No
00:44:57Like when some
00:44:58A lot of people can sing
00:45:01And then they go into the rap
00:45:01And it's just like
00:45:02Oh, a bit jarring
00:45:03But that's
00:45:04That was just flowed, man
00:45:05Thank you
00:45:06Really cool
00:45:07And I love your fit
00:45:08I love that you know who you are
00:45:10Thank you
00:45:10Um, that was cool
00:45:12Yeah
00:45:12Masha
00:45:13Michael, I'm gonna say just a couple things for you
00:45:15You sort of faulted here and there
00:45:17On some of your notes
00:45:18That's forgivable
00:45:19Okay
00:45:19Yeah
00:45:20But
00:45:21Listen to when
00:45:22You're listening to a track
00:45:24Don't rush yourself in it
00:45:25Just try and sit in it a bit more
00:45:27Otherwise I think you did a sterling
00:45:29A great job
00:45:30That's some great advice
00:45:31I'll take that
00:45:31I'm gonna give you your first yes
00:45:34Thank you
00:45:35You need two out of three at least
00:45:36Well, I'll
00:45:37I'll give you the second yes
00:45:38Oh
00:45:39Hey
00:45:40It's a yes from me too
00:45:41Yay
00:45:41Really yes it
00:45:42Yeah
00:45:43Thank you
00:45:43Brilliant
00:45:44We'll see you when we hand our golden tickets
00:45:46The next mission for you is to walk out of here
00:45:49With a golden ticket this afternoon
00:45:51Appreciate it
00:45:51Good luck, man
00:45:52Hopefully I see you with a golden ticket
00:45:54Thank you
00:45:54Thank you
00:45:55Well done, Michael
00:45:56That was just really, really great
00:45:58Lovely meeting y'all
00:45:59That was good
00:46:03How did you go?
00:46:04How did you go?
00:46:04How did you go?
00:46:06Three yeses
00:46:10I'm just trying to lose
00:46:11I can't love to
00:46:13Really?
00:46:14That's what I was trying to impress
00:46:15Really?
00:46:17Next
00:46:17I never do this
00:46:19Ever
00:46:20You're coming back to re-audition
00:46:21With a new song
00:46:24As her second shot at auditioning approaches
00:46:26Time is running out for Sophie
00:46:29Just these lyrics
00:46:30You know them
00:46:32Yeah, I know
00:46:32I don't know why
00:46:33I just want them
00:46:35I know a lot of people
00:46:36Don't get a second chance
00:46:37So this has to be
00:46:39The best performance of my whole life
00:46:40Will Sophie get redemption?
00:46:43I'm worried
00:46:43But it's fine
00:46:44It's fine
00:46:44Or will it have all been for nothing?
00:46:48And later
00:46:48Kyle goes into uncharted waters
00:46:51Just up here on our nine o'clock
00:46:53That's where the Navy base is
00:46:55To do what no judge has done before
00:46:58But will it be enough to convince Kyle?
00:47:01But you think you're ready
00:47:02I'm ready
00:47:03Do I think you're ready?
00:47:08Wow
00:47:10And later
00:47:11It brings me no joy
00:47:13To make it any more difficult
00:47:15Than it already is
00:47:16The golden ticket
00:47:18Is going to be awarded
00:47:21To
00:47:39Wish me luck
00:47:40This year
00:47:41We have travelled further
00:47:43Than ever before
00:47:44To find the diamonds in the rough
00:47:46We are auditioning singers
00:47:48For Australian Idol
00:47:53Our judges have found outstanding singers
00:47:56Who have earned their spot
00:47:57In the top 30
00:48:00But that doesn't mean
00:48:01The hunt is over
00:48:02Kyle is on a mission
00:48:04To find the next Australian Idol
00:48:07So I'm going to jump on
00:48:08The little rubber ducky
00:48:09And we're going to stealth it in
00:48:11To the Navy base
00:48:12Jump on board
00:48:14And look for this woman
00:48:15A Navy officer
00:48:16That apparently
00:48:17Is an angelic singer
00:48:22My name is leading seaman
00:48:23Maddie Lee
00:48:24I'm 27 years old
00:48:25And I'm a maritime personnel operator
00:48:27Of the Royal Australian Navy
00:48:29I've been in for eight and a half years now
00:48:31And I'm really proud
00:48:33To be wearing this uniform
00:48:34Every day as a serving member
00:48:35It's definitely been challenging
00:48:36But I've loved every minute of it
00:48:39Five minutes to eight o'clock sir
00:48:41Very good
00:48:42I'm always singing around the ship
00:48:44And it definitely helps me
00:48:47Get through all those tough times
00:48:49Has helped me get through
00:48:50A lot of my long deployments
00:48:52And being away
00:48:52It really helps me get through my day
00:48:57Hey guys
00:48:59Oh
00:48:59Oh
00:49:00I get the Navy gear
00:49:01Oh this is fantastic
00:49:04Wish me luck
00:49:09We're away
00:49:12Just up here on our nine o'clock
00:49:15That's where the Navy base is
00:49:17So we're going to swing into the nine
00:49:19We're going to sneak on board
00:49:29I'm pretty excited about it
00:49:30I've never been on a naval ship
00:49:32Oh it's exciting
00:49:33I've done deep sea fishing
00:49:35It's about as close as it gets
00:49:37Thank you guys
00:49:39The best
00:49:47Captain
00:49:49How are you sir
00:49:49Do I salute
00:49:50Do I miss it
00:49:51Nice to meet you
00:49:52Oh
00:49:53Am I allowed to push any of these buttons
00:49:56And what does that do
00:49:57Oh my lord
00:50:00I think I've started a war
00:50:03I'm sorry
00:50:07Read please
00:50:09Yes please
00:50:17Leading seaman Lee
00:50:20Hello
00:50:21How are you
00:50:22I'm good
00:50:23I'm Captain Kyle
00:50:24Oh Captain Kyle
00:50:25Nice to meet you
00:50:26Sorry the real captain's over there
00:50:27They said you're quite the singer
00:50:29Is that right
00:50:29I am
00:50:30Everyone from the captain
00:50:31To right down
00:50:32Said you are Australia's greatest naval singer
00:50:36But you're exactly what we're looking for
00:50:38Amazing
00:50:39And I thought while we're here now
00:50:40Yeah
00:50:41Might as well audition here
00:50:42In front of everyone
00:50:43Right now
00:50:45What is going on
00:50:50I'm in shock
00:50:50I'm still shaking
00:50:56Just take a second
00:50:57Because there's a few people
00:50:59That have gathered
00:50:59Oh okay
00:51:00Just to show you some support
00:51:02You've got all your friends
00:51:04On the ship here
00:51:04And you've got your own navy band
00:51:06Let's go down
00:51:07Let's go down everyone
00:51:24I'm so nervous now
00:51:26But I'm ready
00:51:28I'm ready
00:51:28This is my time now
00:51:29I'm ready to go
00:51:34Yeah
00:51:40Maddie's here
00:51:40Maddie's going to audition
00:51:42If she does have what it takes
00:51:44I'll drag her back to Idol HQ
00:51:45And let her audition for all three judges
00:51:48Do you want to see Maddie do her thing everyone?
00:51:52Take a step up to the microphone
00:51:54Good luck honey
00:51:54Wish her the very best
00:52:05Everyone about what he's doing
00:52:08How it all turned to lights
00:52:14Sometimes I think
00:52:16That's better
00:52:17To never ask why
00:52:23Never worry
00:52:25That it might be ruined
00:52:28Does it make you want to cry
00:52:31Oh
00:52:32When you're out there
00:52:35Doing what you're doing
00:52:36Tell me
00:52:38Are you just getting by
00:52:41By
00:52:41By
00:52:42Where there is desire
00:52:44There is gonna be a flame
00:52:46Where there is a flame
00:52:49Someone's bound to get burned
00:52:51Just because it burns
00:52:54Doesn't mean you're gonna die
00:52:56Gotta get up and try
00:52:59Try
00:53:00Try
00:53:01Gotta get up and try

00:53:22Yeah
00:53:28Maddie did a great job
00:53:30Your captain wasn't lying
00:53:31That's fantastic
00:53:33I'm gonna take a couple of minutes
00:53:34And we'll let you guys know
00:53:36Whether we're gonna take her
00:53:37On the idle journey
00:53:39I was pretty nervous
00:53:40But I felt good in the end
00:53:41Yeah
00:53:42I think I got into the groove of it
00:53:43Once it really picked up
00:53:44So
00:53:45Yeah
00:53:46I'm a bit nervous though
00:53:47I really want him to say yes
00:53:50You've got all your family out here
00:53:51That came out to watch you
00:53:52Yeah
00:53:53They're supposed to be doing
00:53:54Some sort of work right now
00:53:55Aren't they
00:53:55Yeah this is work
00:53:56What would you be doing
00:53:58If you weren't here
00:53:58I'd be in my office right now
00:54:00Right
00:54:01Would you put this part of your career
00:54:02On hold
00:54:03For the chance to
00:54:04Hit the Australian Idol stage
00:54:06And should I even ask you
00:54:08To do that
00:54:08You know what I mean
00:54:09Like this is a lot of
00:54:10A lot of difficulty
00:54:11I'm ready to take that next step
00:54:12Music is my passion
00:54:14But you think you're ready
00:54:14I'm ready
00:54:15But do I think you're ready
00:54:25I'd like to officially
00:54:26Bring you back to Idol HQ
00:54:28And you'll either get a golden ticket
00:54:30Or you won't get one
00:54:31Oh my god
00:54:32Are you in?
00:54:33Yes
00:54:33You're in
00:54:34She's coming with me everyone
00:54:35She's coming with us
00:54:38Yeah
00:54:42Good luck you guys
00:54:43You'll have to defend the country
00:54:44On your own
00:54:45I'm taking this one
00:54:46To Idol headquarters
00:54:48Bye everyone
00:55:12Wow
00:55:14So much
00:55:15I've been waiting for this for such a long time
00:55:18And
00:55:19It's finally happening
00:55:22Oh my god
00:55:30Coming up
00:55:31It's Sophie's moment of truth
00:55:34As I said before
00:55:35We don't let anyone do it again
00:55:38Can she deliver
00:55:39When it counts
00:55:42Then
00:55:43A final judgment face off
00:55:47This is a numbers game
00:55:49And we can only choose one of you
00:55:50But who will get
00:55:52A golden ticket
00:55:53The singer
00:55:54That we are giving
00:55:55The golden ticket to
00:55:57Will be
00:56:13With five singers in the waiting room
00:56:16Our next hopeful wants to be number six
00:56:25And he's come all the way from the Apple Isle
00:56:28To make it happen
00:56:29I'm Jacob
00:56:30I'm 20
00:56:30I'm from Exeter
00:56:31Just outside of Launceston
00:56:33In Tasmania
00:56:38You don't really expect a hip hop artist to be living out in the country like this
00:56:42We've got chickens
00:56:43We've got ducks
00:56:44We've got sheep
00:56:45They're the ducks
00:56:46They're actually my favourite animal
00:56:49We didn't come from a lot
00:56:50We still obviously had a roof over our heads
00:56:52And food to eat and stuff like that
00:56:55So for me
00:56:56Hip hop
00:56:57Hip hop is just a way to escape reality
00:56:58Don't tell me this is all for nothing
00:57:02It's about true struggles and stuff in your life
00:57:05I can relate to that
00:57:07When I was a younger teenager
00:57:09I started getting into, you know, hanging around the wrong people
00:57:12Getting into the wrong sort of things like that
00:57:15The only thing that pulled me out of that sort of rut was hip hop
00:57:19Hip hop for me definitely saved my life
00:57:22My music represents passion, drive and love for music to be honest
00:57:27That's my dream being able to do what I love
00:57:30If you ever leave I hope that you learn
00:57:33Tell me this is all for nothing
00:57:36Who do we have here?
00:57:38I'm Jacob
00:57:39Jacob, where are you from?
00:57:41I'm from Exeter in Tasmania
00:57:42You're a Tassie boy
00:57:44Yeah
00:57:45Okay, where on the map?
00:57:47North Tasmania
00:57:48Northern tip of Tasmania
00:57:50Yeah, nearly the tip, just down the river
00:57:52I say
00:57:53So what kind of artist are you, Jacob?
00:57:55Or would you want to be?
00:57:57I'm like a mix between hip hop and I'll tell you, pop
00:58:01Sort of like, you know, like Kid Leroy, Juice WRLD
00:58:04That sort of style
00:58:04Yeah, yeah
00:58:05When you listen to Juice WRLD and Kid Leroy
00:58:08It's like, it's so melodic
00:58:09Yeah, they're great
00:58:09And I like it because it's so raw
00:58:11It's emotional
00:58:12Yeah, it is angst
00:58:14Yeah
00:58:14Thrown out in artistry
00:58:16Yeah, exactly
00:58:17What are you going to do today?
00:58:18I'm going to sing a rendition of
00:58:20Seven Years by Lucas Graham
00:58:22And it's a hip hop remix
00:58:24Cool
00:58:24Yeah, remix
00:58:27When you're ready, mate
00:58:28Take your time, no stress
00:58:30Yep
00:58:30We want you to do well
00:58:31Awesome, no worries, man
00:58:39Once I was seven years old
00:58:42Mama told me
00:58:43Make yourself some friends
00:58:45You'll be lonely
00:58:47Once I was seven years old
00:58:53As a youngin' I just wanted to be famous
00:58:55Hop, pow, pow, pow
00:58:56What you sayin'?
00:58:57I was jimmin' on the biggest of the stages
00:58:59Singing to the wiggles
00:59:00I was tested for the greatness
00:59:01It was just me, my guitar
00:59:03Singing to my family
00:59:04Saying I go far
00:59:05Jimmin' on the jets
00:59:06In the Lamborghini cars
00:59:07I was running for the hills
00:59:08Trying to look out at the park
00:59:10All of these bullies came through
00:59:11Yelling in the crowd
00:59:12All that ever says boo
00:59:13I was trying to figure out
00:59:14What the hell I do
00:59:15Then I got it in the mood
00:59:16That I should just stop and move
00:59:18I didn't wanna move
00:59:19But I had to
00:59:21I didn't wanna move
00:59:23But I had to
00:59:25This ADHD has me feeling so crazy
00:59:29And I know that it's the only thing that's made me
00:59:33It's made my name
00:59:35It's made my name, my
00:59:37It's made my name
00:59:39Once I was seven years old
00:59:42Mama told me
00:59:43Make yourself some friends
00:59:46You'll be lonely
00:59:47Once I was seven years old
00:59:56Bro!
00:59:57I loved it!
00:59:59Thank you!
01:00:00I was, like
01:00:02Usually, rappers, singers
01:00:04They're really good at one
01:00:05Yeah
01:00:06And not so good at the other
01:00:07And you started singing
01:00:09And I was like, hey
01:00:10This guy's a singer
01:00:11Yeah
01:00:11And then I thought, so his rapping's gonna be crap
01:00:14And then it was far from it
01:00:15I believed it
01:00:17Thank you
01:00:17You're not the best singer we've ever had on this contest
01:00:20Yeah
01:00:20By any stretch of the imagination
01:00:22Yeah
01:00:22But I ate it up
01:00:24I believed it
01:00:24It was raw
01:00:26It was very real
01:00:27It's your life in art
01:00:29Yeah
01:00:29And I loved it
01:00:31Thank you
01:00:32I'm gonna say yes
01:00:33Thank you so much
01:00:35What do you guys think?
01:00:36You know, Jacob
01:00:37I don't know how far you can go in this
01:00:39But just because you had the chutzpah
01:00:42You know, and the belief in yourself to say
01:00:45Yeah
01:00:45I'm coming to Sydney
01:00:47I'm gonna show y'all on Australian Idol
01:00:50What I want to do
01:00:52But I really like your vibe
01:00:54It's a yes for me Jacob
01:00:56Thank you so much
01:00:59I'm saying yes
01:01:00Thank you so much

01:02:02Good luck everybody
01:02:05The last remaining hopeful is Melbourne model Sophie
01:02:08Who struggled to let her personality shine earlier today
01:02:12I didn't expect a young beautiful girl to come in and sing old sad lady songs
01:02:18And in a rare twist we'll re-audition with a new song
01:02:25Okay cool
01:02:26I'm really passionate about this and I want this so bad
01:02:29So I think it's about just like focusing in now
01:02:32And like really trying to impress them this time

01:02:41Now as I said before
01:02:43We don't let anyone do it again
01:02:45But we gave you a little challenge
01:02:47To come up with something new that actually shows us who you are
01:02:51What have you chosen?
01:02:52We've got Tainted Love
01:02:54Oh
01:02:55Nice
01:02:56Whenever you're ready
01:02:57When you're ready okay
01:03:09Sometimes I feel I've got to run away
01:03:14I've got to get away from the pain you drive into the heart of me
01:03:21The love we share
01:03:23Seems to go nowhere
01:03:25For I've lost my light
01:03:28Now I toss
01:03:30Amazing stage presence
01:03:32What's I ran for you
01:03:34Oh
01:03:35Now I run for you
01:03:37This tainted love you give
01:03:40And I give you all the girl can give you
01:03:43Take my tears and that's not nearly all
01:03:46Tainted love
01:03:48Whoa

01:03:53I cannot stand the way you see
01:03:56I love you but you hurt me
01:03:58So
01:03:58Now I've got to back my
01:04:01Things ain't gone
01:04:02There it is
01:04:03What's I ran for you
01:04:05Now I run for you
01:04:07This tainted love you give
01:04:10And I give you all the girl can give you
01:04:13Let my tears in
01:04:15That's not nearly all
01:04:16Tainted love

01:04:32Thank you
01:04:33That's exactly what I was hoping you would do
01:04:36You put on a show
01:04:38Because you tick so many boxes
01:04:40I just want us to be super super sure
01:04:43And you did a great version of that song
01:04:45Thank you
01:04:45I love your style
01:04:46I love you
01:04:47And I think you know you're gonna learn more about your performance level if you get through
01:04:53To this
01:04:53You know what I mean
01:04:53For sure
01:04:54Like I think there's a lot there
01:04:55You're sassy
01:04:56You're sexy
01:04:57You know
01:04:58And you got a voice
01:04:59Maybe I've enjoyed her that much
01:05:00Maybe we should get her to come back and sing a third song just to be sure
01:05:04Please
01:05:05Don't be the end of me I think
01:05:06That energy was just like so effortless for you
01:05:10Thank you
01:05:10Like and that's really hard for a lot of artists
01:05:12To just you know walk around and execute a performance like that
01:05:16I felt what Kyle felt like there was just something else in you that I felt like you restraining
01:05:23But I'm so glad we got to see that because wow what are we gonna see down the line is
01:05:29what I'm thinking
01:05:29So I'm gonna start it with a yes
01:05:31Thank you
01:05:34I will give you your second yes
01:05:37Thank you Kyle
01:05:38I'll give you a yes well done darling
01:05:40Thank you guys
01:05:41Well done because that wouldn't have been easy to do
01:05:42Oh
01:05:43I appreciate you so much
01:05:44Next time we see you we'll be handing out golden tickets to people that will go through to the next
01:05:49round

01:05:55Yep she's super cool
01:05:56That's great
01:05:57Yeah she'll be an interesting one to watch
01:06:00The suspense is killer
01:06:04We made it
01:06:09I'm feeling super grateful
01:06:10I think this is just motivation to keep going through the next few rounds
01:06:19Hi hello
01:06:20Oh my god that was crazy
01:06:21I'm Sophie nice to meet you
01:06:22Harry loving me
01:06:23Trey and Harry
01:06:23Yeah I really want that golden ticket
01:06:25And I'll do anything it takes to get it
01:06:29With seven incredible singers in the waiting room
01:06:33We have some of the toughest head to heads yet
01:06:37Whose idle dream continues
01:06:39I don't want to drag this out any longer
01:06:41And whose dream is over
01:06:44The golden ticket
01:06:46Is going to be awarded
01:06:48Two
01:06:56As the sun sets on day five of auditions
01:06:59It's time to get down to business
01:07:01And uncover the next Australian idol
01:07:04With 17 golden tickets already gone
01:07:08Our hopefuls are beginning to feel the competition
01:07:11I know that like we're probably not all going to get a ticket
01:07:14The talents look unreal
01:07:17Everyone's such a different style
01:07:19Obviously you know nervous to go up against them
01:07:22There's a few similar artists in my group
01:07:25So I am pretty scared
01:07:27But music is my one and only passion
01:07:29I need this
01:07:36This will probably be a very tough one
01:07:37Because they're all pretty good
01:07:39Yeah
01:07:40This guy he's fantastic
01:07:41He was good
01:07:42Swaggy guy down there
01:07:44Oh he was good too
01:07:44I like this guy's vibe
01:07:46She was amazing
01:07:48I mean this is hard
01:07:50I went down to the Sydney naval yards
01:07:53Where I found this young naval girl Maddie
01:07:58Oh
01:07:59Okay cool
01:08:01I've only met Kyle
01:08:02But Marsha and Amy
01:08:04They're some big names
01:08:05So I'm definitely
01:08:06I'm a bit nervous
01:08:08Alright let's bring them in
01:08:10First up
01:08:11Representing R&B and Hip Hop
01:08:13It's young dad Trey
01:08:15Data analyst Michael
01:08:17And small town Tassie artist Jacob
01:08:21I'm doing this for my wife
01:08:23My daughters
01:08:24I wanna show my girls that anything is possible
01:08:27When you chase after your dreams
01:08:29So this is definitely a huge step
01:08:32Moving away from just being a data analyst to a musician
01:08:35And that's the dream
01:08:35I feel like we've just scratched the surface of what I can give
01:08:39And we can give more
01:08:41I've come all the way from Tasmania
01:08:43I wanna be able to put my entire state on the map
01:08:46I've worked so hard for it
01:08:48It's time to come and collect it
01:08:51Ready?
01:08:52Yo
01:08:52Good luck
01:08:53Thank you

01:09:15Michael our data analyst
01:09:18Alexis
01:09:18And Jacob
01:09:20The Tassie Kid Leroy
01:09:21I wish
01:09:24The three of you all were very talented
01:09:26And what you brought to the table was really cool
01:09:28But this is a numbers game and we can only choose one of you
01:09:33All three of you bring such different flavours to this competition
01:09:38But we always came back to one person
01:09:44And that person
01:09:48Is
01:09:52It's gonna be you Trey
01:09:55Thank you so much

01:11:08I'm just excited for what's to come
01:11:10Is he here?
01:11:12Don't bend the golden ticket
01:11:14What are you doing?
01:11:15Oh sorry sorry
01:11:17Next up to face the judges
01:11:19It's Melbourne model Sophie
01:11:21And Ballarat barber Harry
01:11:27I hope I was able to redeem what Kyle thought I was lacking
01:11:30Getting this golden ticket could do a lot with my career
01:11:34But we're probably not all gonna get a ticket
01:11:36In the back of my mind I am thinking about that
01:11:39I am worried that my audition could potentially cost me the golden ticket
01:11:43I was a little bit nervous and that kind of put me on the back foot
01:11:46I'm hoping that they saw through my performance
01:11:49I've got a lot to showcase
01:11:51I'm hoping I can get to do that
01:11:54Hi
01:11:55Oh hello
01:11:56Hello
01:11:57It's the good looking two
01:11:59Sophie our art pop model out of Melbourne

01:12:05That's the one
01:12:07Sophie you did the sad old lady song
01:12:09Yep
01:12:10And then we had to get you to come back and zip it up
01:12:12What did you do?
01:12:13Tainted love
01:12:14I cannot stand the way you see
01:12:17I love you but you hurt me so
01:12:20Now I've got to back my heart
01:12:22Thanks ain't gone
01:12:23That was good
01:12:25Thank you
01:12:25And Harry you fluffed the lyrics
01:12:27I did
01:12:28About halfway through
01:12:29But you recuperated
01:12:31And you watching this all through the eyes
01:12:38Of a tiger
01:12:40You just got to roll with the punches
01:12:42That's right
01:12:42And you recovered
01:12:43Yeah
01:12:43Thank you
01:12:44It's quite a tough decision with you too
01:12:46As you can imagine
01:12:50You know idols about the sound
01:12:53The style
01:12:54And you both definitely have elements of that
01:12:57In what you brought to the table
01:12:59I don't want to drag this out any longer
01:13:03It brings me no joy
01:13:04To make it any more difficult than it already is
01:13:10The golden ticket
01:13:13Is going to be awarded

01:13:27And Harry
01:13:28It brings me no joy
01:13:30To make it any more difficult than it already is
01:13:35The golden ticket
01:13:37The golden ticket
01:13:38Is going to be awarded
01:13:42To

01:14:32Now it's the drive to keep going
01:14:34Thank goodness
01:14:35Wow

01:14:38But I'm excited
01:14:38It may be the chance
01:14:39At a full time music career
01:14:41So hopefully this ticket
01:14:42Can kind of
01:14:42Put me on the right track for that

01:14:44Congratulations
01:14:45Welcome to the top 30

01:14:54From Jindabyne
01:14:55Kesha
01:14:55And Kyle's navy discovery
01:14:57Maddy
01:15:00Kyle's seen something in me
01:15:01So I'm really hoping
01:15:03That that's pushed me across the line
01:15:04To get that golden ticket
01:15:06I want to make myself so proud
01:15:08And the navy proud
01:15:09I wouldn't be here today
01:15:11Without them
01:15:11So I really need to make them proud
01:15:16I am hoping I've done enough
01:15:18Getting in that top 30
01:15:19Would really reassure me
01:15:21That people have faith in my music
01:15:24I'm hoping that my performance stands out
01:15:26And they just like what they see
01:15:28Now I've met you
